As I was searching for verification that a certain hospital no longer uses CRNA's I came across an oddity. When I looked at 20 or so "anesthesia groups" not one of them mentioned anything about their CRNA's. Only Doctor's are listed. Isn't that weird?
I happen to have personal knowledge that at least one of the outfits I looked at uses CRNA's. Yet, there is no mention of any CRNA, anesthetist, anesthesia nurse or anything at all that would lead a person to believe that anybody but a Dr. would be involved in the patient's care. I don't know why this would be so, but CRNA's are a very well kept secret. I think this is wrong. I think that these Doctors should honestly advertise that they use nurses instead of themselves. It's kinda false advertising isn't it?
Don't take my word for it, look for yourselves.
